This is what I assume to be a pill box, marked for 1910, diameter 44mm. Believing that I've checked all of the sources, please may I ask if anybody has established whose sponsor mark this is? It is listed on Silver Makers Marks but without a name. As always, thank you for your time.

Hi,

I suspect that is one of the marks used by Lawson, Ward & Gammage (Henry Robert William Lawson, John Barron Ward, John Ellis Gammage and George Henry Gammage). They certainly entered marks at London and Chester. Although the history of the firm is much older, they started trading under the style of Lawson, Ward & Gammage in 1903.
